PATIENT REVIEWS

I really like this place and have been coming here for a few years now. They are very professional and honest with how much you need to pay. They have helped with insurance estimates for all the work that I needed. They ask you to prepay for your visits and at first, I didn’t get it but it’s part of doing business which I understand. The hygienists are very knowledgeable and teach you to care about your teeth. I recommend it to everyone if you care about your health. It has changed my health and I appreciate that they have taught me that!!!

I started going to Prestige dental for my regular check ups/6 month teeth cleaning appointments. I was always impressed by how personable the staff were. I had a pretty severe open bite and so got invisalyn with Dr. Makagon. I am now almost complete with my treatments and I am blown away by the results and experience. Dr. Makagon has been one of the most genuine, caring, personable health professionals I have known; and I’m a nurse so I’ve been around many. At times when I didn’t want to do more treatments because I wanted to be done; she encouraged me to keep going until they were perfect; and now they are. I would highly recommend here!

I moved to Seattle from Tacoma, so I could have kept my old dentist. But Prestige is literally a block from my work, and once I saw that it was headed by a female dentist I was game to switch it up. The first time I went in for a cleaning and witnessed the professionalism, diversity, and respect, I knew I’d made the right choice. I’ve since had a full Invisalign treatment, and it was worth every penny and appointment! One never ~enjoys the dentist, precisely, but this team does their absolute best to make it as pleasant as possible

prestige dental has been my dental office for the last 7 years. i love going there because the staff is nice, professional and caring and not to mention knowledgeable. Dr. Makagon is an amazing dentist and i can’t imagine going to anyone else. i’ve done invisalign treatment and a had a periodontal surgery to close my gap in the front. i highly recommended this office to everyone! they are super efficient and clean and always help me with my insurance claims. i’ve never had any issues. definitely come to prestige dental

I’ve had a few appointments here now and it’s been great! Very professional service, always on time and great dental work. Dr. Makagan is very educational and caring. She spends a lot of time answering questions and concerns. They gave me a protein shake after Procedure Which was a nice touch since I was all numbed up. She even called me to check on me the next day. I really appreciated taking her time to follow up to make sure I was okay.

Prestige Dental has been great.  They have been open during Covid-19 Even though im sure it’s very hard for them. I have been going for routine checkups and my teeth feel awesome.  I’m getting Invisalign done nowI’m flossing more now and using an electric toothbrush which makes my teeth feel taken care of. Thank you prestige staff for  being involved and caring about your patients even during these unfortunate times with the pandemic.

Prestige Dental has been my trusted place for oral care for years with a great staff and expertise from Dr. Makagon. I got my Invisalign Clear Aligners with Dr. Makagon and she took such great care and didn’t want or let me to just be content with how things were progressing, working diligently to make edits and get additional trays until I was extremely happy with the results. Can’t say enough good things about Dr. Makagon and Prestige Dental – highly recommended!

I hadn’t been to the dentist in over twelve years. I had a lot of anxiety and needed much work done. I was in pain and needed help. I found Dr Makagon on a referral from a work friend. Sitting in the chair, I watched old episodes of the office and played Texas Hold Em Poker from the overhead monitor. The process each time was quick and painless. Either in the office or through referrals, I got through a root canal, wisdom teeth, crowns, and cavaties. The wisdom teeth extraction, I fell asleep in seconds from the start then woke up with it being done, and no memory. For my root canal, 3 shots then there was nothing for me to feel, only vibrations. Everything was over fast and painlessly. My teeth were crooked to start out, and after going through Invisilign, now my teeth are closing in on perfect. I don’t even recognize my smile, which I do a lot more of now. And after some painless deep cleaning and some instructions in the proper way to floss, every single day, having been done almost a year now, my gums have returned to a healthy pink. Thanks to everyone at Prestige Dental for helping me in my transformation, for taking something ugly like pain and fear and replacing it with something beautiful like a perfect smile.

One of the best dental experiences I have ever had. Dr. Makagon and her team are one of the best teams that I have worked with before. Besides the routine teeth cleanings that I get there, they have helped me with removing my wisdom teeth AND set my up with an Invisalign plan that has helped correct my teeth. I implore anyone to come to their dentist’s office as I believe it is one of the best ones in Seattle.

When I moved to Seattle 3 years ago I needed a lot of help with my teeth after being somewhat negligent for a couple years earlier. There’s a stigma about dentists that they will scold you about your bad home dental care, but Dr. Makagon and her staff were very educational and helpful. After looking at my teeth, Dr. Makagon told me I may need one or two root canals, but wanted to try fillings and some treatment first. I’m very pleased to report the treatment worked and after a few relatively pain-free appointments (where I can watch Netflix/Hulu/Twitch on TV’s that hang over the “operating chairs”) and stepping up my home care I now have healthy teeth and all my trips to this office now are for routine checkups and cleanings. I’m very grateful to Dr. Makagon and the staff for top notch care. I see some other comments about Tamara, and I have only had good experiences with her. I find her nice and we have little chats while finalizing payment and setting up the next visit. I think all of the staff here is very friendly and skilled, especially Dr. Makagon on both fronts. As long as I’m working or living near South Lake Union I don’t plan on changing dentists.

I love coming here.  They are very kind and thorough and take their time with everything that they do.  The office is beautiful and clean.  In fact, I don’t think I’ve been to a dental office like this one before.  The receptionists remind you of your appointments all the time which I really like.  I tend to forget sometimes with my busy schedule.  They have also helped accomodate me on several occasions now when I was out of town and needed to get in prior to my trips.  I have recommended several of my friends to come to Prestige Dental and they all love it.  I will keep coming herd as long as I’m in Seattle.  Thank you Prestige Dental for making my experience so wonderful.  I love coming to the dentist now.

Dr. Makagon runs a great practice and she is very skilled in her trade. The team at Prestige is efficient and friendly. During this period of coronavirus they are practicing very diligent PPE practices and checking the temperature of all patients. It can’t be comfortable wearing a mask, face shield, and the normal dentist head gear, so I really appreciate what they are doing and that they are open for business.

I love this place!!!!  Awesome, kind people.  Lisa and Sharon are so kind and knowledgeable.  They are always there to help and educate you with having the best oral health.  Dr. Bella is welcoming and respectful.  They smile, greet you and are all very professional with great energy.  Highly recommend Prestige Dental.  Our whole family goes there.

Throughout my life, I had never been the biggest fan of going to the dentist. I must say, however that this all changed when I first visited prestige dental. Upon entering the office, I immediately noticed how warm and accommodating the pre-appointment waiting area was~from their refrigerator stocked with bottled waters and self brew coffee maker to the comfortable seating and free wifi, I must say that I genuinely was able to relax and enjoy my time while waiting for my appointment to begin. As for the staff, they are absolutely remarkable and most definitely go out of their way to make you feel at home! When I was seated in the chair I was given a warm neckwrap (which felt wonderful) and the option of watching Netflix, which I politely declined, but it was still awesome that the option to do so was there! The hygienist, Sharon, did a wonderful job cleaning my teeth (whereas every other dentist I had been to in the past was a painful experience because my gums can be extremely sensitive sometimes), and that being said, I can definitely say that I will be returning to Prestige for many followup appointments 🙂 Before leaving, Tamara, who is absolutely wonderful, helped me make payment on what remaining money I owed and I was on my way! Thank you, prestige dental, for always providing an extremely pleasant and hassle free experience!

I”ve been coming to this dental office for a couple of years now. I’ve had great experience. The staff is very kind and helpful. I had an emergency when I first came, a couple of broken teeth. Since then, I’ve had a couple of crowns done and they feel very natural, I’ve had no issues. My hygienists educate me a lot and always give me good advise. They care and are very professional. It’s very close to my office which makes it convenient. They also offer valet which is helpful in downtown Seattle. I was recommended to come here by one of my team members at work and don’t regret it at all. I’ll be staying at the dental office as long as I work downtown.

Dr. Makagon, Lisa, the entire staff at Prestige Dental are exceptional. Not only are they knowledgeable on the latest dental techniques, but they make you feel like family. In addition the office is spotless and they have all the latest equipment to make any procedure painless. I can’t say enough positive about Prestige Dental!

I’ve never had such awesome customer service from a Dental Office before- (and not many other businesses for that matter). Every single member of the staff is on the top of their game. I was comfortable during the procedure and had very little discomfort afterwards. They even showed me my x-rays, which means everything to me since I have background in medical work. They didn’t assume that I couldn’t understand what I was looking at, which is what most places do. The communication via email and text just makes it that much easier to work with them. Thank you Prestige!

Customer since 2014. The entire office treats you like family. I adore Lisa as my hygienist since she knows me, always provides pointed feedback on what I need to do to take care of my teeth (floss regularly), but isn’t a broken record and doesn’t make me feel guilty. Bella and her entire staff are wonderful; caring and want to get to know you as a person, not just a customer. Valet is nice touch given the high traffic area. I could go anywhere for my dental work, but choose Prestige because of the amazing customer experience.

I have been going to Prestige Dental for almost 4 years. Staff there is great and very professional. It’s been a pleasure with Dr. Makagon and Tamara! Dr. Makagon is very caring, Tamara is a delight to work with when scheduling appointments and working with finances. I had my cleaning, fillings, crown, wisdom teeth removal and crown lengthening operations in Prestige, and no doubt – all excellent job. Appointments were always on time. I highly recommend Prestige Dental to anyone.

I’ve had a few appointments here now and it’s been great! Very professional service, always on time and great dental work. Dr. Makagan is very educational and caring. She spends a lot of time answering questions and concerns. They gave me a protein shake after Procedure Which was a nice touch since I was all numbed up. She even called me to check on me the next day. I really appreciated taking her time to follow up to make sure I was okay.

I’ve been a client for about 5 years. I needed a new dentist after moving to Belltown. My roommates were both patients at Prestige and loved everything about it; staff, location, accommodating schedule. They’re really good about keeping you updated on appointment times and will often look for solutions if there is a time that works best for you. I’ve had to change appointments before because I had a vacation scheduled and didn’t realize til I got an appointment reminder (another plus). I opted in to getting Invisalign. I had it before with another office but didn’t stick with it. When I met the Doctor for the first time, she pointed out the one thing I wanted done and I knew we would be a good fit. It was minor but the other place couldn’t get it and the doc knew exactly how to get it done. She really pays attention to the details. During my last visit, she completed my cleaning instead of the other hygienists on staff. It was a nice touch to how they operate, she really takes the time to get to know her patients.

I would absolutely recommend seeing Dr. Makagon and the rest of the staff at Prestige Dental for your dental needs. Everyone in the office is warm and kind and make you feel taken care of while you are any where in their building, especially in the chair. There are many amenities (TVs above every chair, neck wraps, coffee/tea) that help ease their patients’ nerves and provide them with a numerous options to tailor the visit to their needs. I hadn’t been to the dentist for quite some time due to moving/insurance, but Dr. Makagon made no judgments; she fixed the issues and provided me with helpful tips to better my oral hygiene. I now go back every 6 months and look forward to every visit. If you are scared or nervous about going to the dentist, I guarantee you will not have any of those feelings if you choose Prestige Dental. I’m grateful to have Dr. Makagon in my healthcare circle and will continue going to Prestige Dental for the foreseeable future. Thanks for fixing my teeth and giving me back some confidence, Dr. Makagon!

Great team and service. I have been going here since they opened. We moved up to Snohomish county and I still drive down to Seattle for Prestige because they are THAT good. Highly recommended. My father in law cracked a tooth while visiting and they got him in immediately and he still raves about them when we chat.

I really like Prestige Dental! Dr. Makagon is very professional and kind. I had invisalign done and I love my teeth. She tried so hard to get the perfect results, it took longer than expected but she was so committed to my care and really did a beautiful job. The assistants are very nice as well, they always ask how I am doing and develop personal relationship with you. I appreciate how much care they put into my mouth. I love my teeth now. Thank you Prestige Dental!

I have been a patient of Dr. Makagon’s for the past four years and I cannot say enough about her professionalism and ethics to go above and beyond for her patients. I have just completed my Invisalign treatment and am so happy with the outcomes. I am a perfectionist and she worked with me for over two years to make sure I was satisfied until the end. I also had an extremely difficult case as I needed a crown for an implant that was over 20 years old replaced. She worked hard to find the correct parts from my previous dentist on the east coast ( no small feat) and involved her periodontist Dr. Amir (who is awesome) to ensure my gums stayed healthy around the implant zone and replace the crown to be more aesthetically pleasing. She even went with me to the lab during her free time to advocate for me to make sure I got the exact color match and shape I wanted. She also rushed over to the office to assist me after a cosmetic emergency I had during a weekend after hours. Also the staff is gracious and super helpful. Tamara, the office manager ,always accommodates me for when I need to see the doctor and provides accurate estimates to me regarding coverage and copays. Dr. Makagon and her practice are top tier and I give my highest recommendation for dentistry, cosmetic dentistry and gum health. So happy I found this practice.

I felt I needed to review on Yelp instead of Google based off the amount of 1 star ratings. I will say in terms of major dental work I’ve had my wisdom teeth removed and a crown put on. I don’t know if the people with poor experiences have had more intense work done but I LOVE this place. I hated going to the dentist my entire life. I ended up getting my wisdom teeth taken out here by chance and had such a great experience I came back for normal dental work. I no longer dread going to the dentist – this practice has changed my view on it completely. I have soft teeth, I had a lot of cavities as a kid and I haven’t had a single one since switching to this office (3 years). Dr. Makagon and her staff are amazing. I would highly recommend her to anyone. They take the time to actually educate you on proper dental hygiene which I believe is key in the health industry. The communication is great, the staff is professional and the atmosphere is clean and relaxing.

Dr. Makagon is wonderful! She’s the best dentist I’ve ever had and that’s saying a lot for me as I have a very challenging mouth for most dentists to handle. I enjoy coming to the dentist now and never thought I would ever reach that point in my life. I recently re-did my veneers and I’m very happy with the results. She did a fantastic job. I’d highly recommend seeing Dr. Makagon.

I’m not a big fan when it comes to the dentist but this office made a huge difference for me.  They truly care.  Dr. Makagon follows up with a phone call and makes sure your voice is heard.  The front office staff is very friendly.  I never had an issue with insurance with them…they tell you what you need to pay and tell you about their strict financial policy upfront which they really stick to.  The expectations are all laid out in front of you and you just have to show up to your appointments.  I really like the hygienist Lisa who is very knowledgeable and educates you to the fullest.  She gives you all the information you need in order to keep your teeth for a long time.  They don’t mess around, they are serious, efficient and professional.  I really had a great experience here and would highly recommend them to everyone who is looking for a great dental office.

I highly recommend Prestige Dentistry and Dr. Bella Makagon for all of your dental needs. I have been a patient there for seven years now and have had a variety of dental work done. The majority of my interactions have been either with Dr. Makagon, Financial Coordinator Tamara or hygienist Lisa. Knowing that I dread dental work of any kind, all three make sure that I’m comfortable and gladly answer any questions that I may have about the dental work being done on me. Their friendly empathetic manner always puts me at ease

Love Prestige Dental. I cannot say enough good things about the whole team. Dr. Makagon is incredibly knowledgeable and comprehensive in her care, and my teeth have never looked or felt better. And you can watch Netflix during your procedures so that helps! I also did my Invisalign through them and it was a seamless experience, Tamara who handles finances and scheduling is a delight to work with and was always able to make timing of things work. Highly recommend Prestige Dental!

I am having a hard time understanding negative reviews about this office. I have been a patient in this practice and have never had a better dentist. I have referred multiple family and friends and everyone has been thrilled with their experience. Dr. Makagon’s staff provides superior customer service, have always tried to find a convenient appointment time and have provided a superior standard of care. I recently had an emergency with a root canal tooth that ended up having an infection. Doctor came in on a Saturday to see me. This is hands down the best practice in the South Lake Union area!! You will not be disappointed.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Makagon for four years and she is the only dentist I trust to work on my teeth. I have very sensitive teeth and gums and she always puts the patient’s comfort and peace of mind first. The fillings and restorations I’ve had done by her are totally invisible, look great, and have never given me any problems going forward. I highly recommend her practice, especially if you are pain sensitive or have a fear of dental work.

First and foremost this review is long overdue. My name is Ashley. I have been a patient of Doctor Bella’s for a while now. I found Doctor Bella on ZocDoc. From the moment I walked in the office the normal dread of going to the dentist faded away. It felt more like going to a spa, where you are greeted with smiling faces (Jordan) and a calming atmosphere. The most amazing part of the service is the service. Doctor Bella is so knowledgeable and has all the high tech equipment in case you’re into that. My favorite part of going to the dentist beside Doctor Bella is Jo!!!!!! Jo, is hands down one of the nicest women I’ve ever met. She welcomes you with her subtle yet cheery, professional demeanor and makes you feel like family. Her attention to detail on your teeth is astounding and the best part is that Jo just like Doctor Bella does not make you feel bad about any issues you may have with your teeth. They talk to you with care and advise you on the best way to handle or solve any issue. They understand we are all not made of money and keep your best interest at heart. Because of Jo, I will be a lifelong patient of Prestige Dental. She has made me enjoy every trip to the dentist office and calms any nerves I may have. It is not often I rave about going to the doctors, although when you think of it we all should a little more…. They do help to keep up feeling great and functioning. I get to see Jo tomorrow and I am so looking forward to my visit. Jo doesn’t just treat you like a patient she treats you like family. After my wonderful experience with Jo, Doctor Bella and the entire Prestige Dental Staff I recommended my best friends to try them out… they did and found the same experience and are no happily hooked on Prestige Dental. If you are looking for the Nordstrom of dentists try out Prestige Dental

I’ve been going to this office for the last 4 years and it’s been a great experience. It’s easy cleanings, no drama, no wait. Everyone is friendly and cares. They remind you of your appointments, give good advice and don’t judge or make you feel demeaning. I love the location, easy to get to. I recommended a bunch of friends and co-workers here and everyone is very happy as well.

My husband and I both use this dental office. He found them first and had such a great experience that I choose them as well. From the first visit, they have been great. The staff is warm and inviting. They knew my name almost right away, right down to remembering that I had said I was going on vacation and asking about it! The office is a modern office that looks high end but doesn’t feel snooty. It is quite centrally located in the SLU area, good walking distance from all Amazon buildings. I’m not sure about the reviewers who spoke of price, after my insurance, I found the prices to be appropriate. I did like that I was consulted as to the next step based on my insurance availability. Its great to be able to get email and text reminders about your upcoming visits as I tend to forget these things (well, when you are scheduling 3 months out, I guess that can happen :)) Overall, I would highly recommend this dentist. I have a great fear of the dentist and they have put me at ease everytime I’ve been there.

A WORD FROM YOUR DOCTOR
